I have fabrics from as far back as the late 60's that I wont get rid of. I have several hobby's I enjoy. My problem is I really get into what I am doing and stay at it until I burn myself out. When I do this I stop and go into something else. I stay away from it until one day I get the urge to do it again. All it takes is a new line of beautiful fabrics and I just have to create something from them. I had stayed away from garment sewing for a long while then my DGD came along and now I am having so much fun making little dresses and clothes for her. I find that when I tell myself I have to use a fabric or make a quilt before I move on to another one I loose interest and don't want to do it. If I put it away and start working on a new project that I am excited about I really get into it and enjoy it.
